Many thanks Sol for the taking the trouble to type
out all that stuff about safe mode and step by step
mode etc. I more or less went through allthose
procedures with the help of the chap who sold us the
PC in the first place ( about 5 or 6 yrs ago now)
last night. Nothing really worked so eventually i had
to re-load Windows 98 and luckily its all fine again.
Touch wood! Nothing lost I dont think though obviously
some dodgy files which may mess up in the future (
this happened a year ago when I last did a DEFRAG!)
Anyway, I've saved your info. in a handy file so if i
ever need it again i know where to look.
All the best, michael
